you think they are going to the fret-a-buster?

If they do, we out here in the hinterlands should bombard our employees -- senators and their staffs -- with demands to make it a real fillibuster. Haul out the cots and keep 'em talking 24 hours a day 'till they drop. No more of the phony fillibuster. Time to shine some antiseptic light on Senate procedures.

but it is my understanding that in a real fillibuster, only the GOP would have to keep all their members on the floor.
